Ouch!

So still running and still smoke free for 9 days now!! The only issue is I have severe shin pain when I run. It effects me to where I have to stop running to relieve pressure in my shins hahaha Chris and I went to Sports Authority yesterday and I bought two braces that helps to relieve shin splints. Well it kinda worked today but I guess I had them to tight because I almost fell when my legs had no feeling. Had to stop and loosen them up then I was able to proceed. I'm still coming in between 10:30 - 11 minutes a mile which isn't great but I'm way out of shape and dealing with massive shin pain. Any suggestions will greatly be appreciated. I'm going to make an appointment with my doctor soon to get my yearly psychical and see what she says about my shins. Chris and I are going to start doing a longer warm up tomorrow to see if that might help relieve my pain.....we shall see.
